Top 10 UK housebuilder, Keepmoat, has broken ground at the third phase of its Kingfields Park development in Hull, set to deliver 114 new homes.

The latest phase of the scheme represents an investment of more than £20 million from the housebuilder, which will add to the 476 homes already delivered across phase one and two.

Construction is now underway as Keepmoat continues its delivery of high-quality, energy-efficient homes alongside greenspaces, enhanced pedestrian routes and an investment into local infrastructure including school and NHS places.

Forming a significant part of the Hull Citywide Development Programme, Kingfields Park is creating a new, multi-tenure community in partnership with Hull City Council.

Ben Hindley, Land & Partnerships Director at Keepmoat, Yorkshire East said: “At Keepmoat, our vision is to build homes and create thriving communities. By prioritising partnerships we’re able to reflect the needs of the community across our developments.

“We’re thrilled to start on site and continue Keepmoat’s major investment in Hull, bringing forward high-quality homes to support local housing needs and create a sustainable neighbourhood where people are proud to live.”

Keepmoat has a strong presence across Hull and East Yorkshire, most recently completing the transformation of the former Amy Johnson School into a 485-strong housing scheme, designed to create a vibrant and sustainable community.

Hull City Council’s Portfolio Holder for Economic Renewal, Housing and Organisational Development, Councillor Paul Drake-Davis, added: “The strong partnership with developers such as Keepmoat allows the council to continue to deliver modern, energy-efficient homes for local families.

“The latest phase of this regeneration scheme represents a significant investment from Keepmoat, underlining the importance of working with companies like them as part of the Hull Citywide Developer Partnership.”
